The Mets led twice late in the game but came out on the wrong end of a 4-3 score in extra innings Thursday afternoon against the Cardinals to drop the rubber game of the series. The Mets scored a first inning run and tacked on another score in the seventh inning, both runs courtesy of [...]
Y’know, twenty years ago, the Mets had a problem. They were a team with a lot of potential and some outstanding players: John Olerud, Edgardo Alfonzoand Al Leiter come to mind. They had staunch defense, anchored by young Rey Ordonez, spectacular at shortstop. They had the vaunted “veteran presence” in the lineup with Carlos Baerga [...]

Brandon Belt set an MLB record with a 21-pitch AB on Sunday. He fouled off 16 two-strike pitches before making an out. The opposing pitcher was Jaime Barria, who somehow threw 49 pitches in the inning without allowing a run. That sound you just heard was Chris F's head exploding as he stares at a [...]
